Overview
The ANYmal is ANYbotics' industrial inspection quadruped, developed from the platform's ETH Zurich origins into the C, D, and X generations. The ANYmal X is the world's first explosion-proof legged robot, certified ATEX and IECEx Zone 1 for oil, gas, and chemical plants. The platform carries 360-degree LiDAR, six depth cameras, thermal imaging, an ultrasonic microphone, and optional gas sensors on 12 electric series-elastic actuators with 360-degree joint rotation, and operates autonomously with SLAM, docking, and offline navigation. ANYmal units are deployed on offshore platforms and at operators including BASF, PETRONAS, and RTE.
Strengths
- ANYmal X is the world's first explosion-proof (Zone 1 certified) legged robot.
- IP67-rated with autonomous docking, charging, and offline navigation.
- Rich inspection payload: 360-degree LiDAR, six depth cameras, thermal, acoustic, and optional gas sensing.
- 12 electric series-elastic actuators with 360-degree joint rotation.
- Deployed with major industrial operators including BASF, PETRONAS, and RTE.
- ETH Zurich research lineage.
Considerations
- Enterprise-only with no public price; independent analysis notes the platform is premium and too costly for most research labs.[2]
- Specifications differ across the C, D, and X generations; figures here are generation-labeled.[1]
- Reported weights differ by generation: approximately 30 kg for the ANYmal X versus approximately 50 kg for the ANYmal C chassis.[4][2]
